Video footage that captured comments made by Richard Spencer, president of the alt-right National Policy Institute, circulated around the web on Sunday. “Hail Trump! Hail our people! Hail victory!” said Spencer. “America was, until this last generation, a white country, designed for ourselves and our posterity. It is our creation and our inheritance, and it belongs to us.” He also made outlandish remarks about Hillary Clinton, Blacks, and Latinos. Trump’s camp issued a statement on Monday claiming that he has condemned racism. “President-elect Trump has continued to denounce racism of any kind and he was elected because he will be a leader for every American,” said Trump spokesman Bryan Lanza. “To think otherwise is a complete misrepresentation of the movement that united Americans from all backgrounds.”Read more.
